Hinduism is closer to the Egyptian religion. First of all, both are monolatric, which means that the Supreme Deity manifests in different forms as many different gods. Their rituals are also quite similar. In ancient Egypt, gods were offered incense, just as Hindu gods are offered sambraani and incense sticks. In common Hindu practices, food would be offered to the gods and later be given out to others after the spritual essence was taken and the food was blessed. In ancient Egypt, food would be set before the gods for them to absorb the essence and later delivered to the priests of the temple. Also, in the Egyptian religion, cosmic order, known as Ma'at, was very important to the survival of the world. People must all obey the laws of Ma'at, or the world will cease to exist. Hinduism has the same, but it is known as dharma.

Another thing: The uncanny number of similarities between Egyptian mythology and Christianity is irrelevant and is a simple construction created by Christ-debunkers. I'm NOT Christian, so don't think I'm defending my religion or something. And none of these debunkers actually have relevant facts from heiroglyphs and very old Egyptian writings.
